The book discusses the major theories and techniques related to the geometric design of roads, in order to provide the reader with information and comprehensive concepts about each stage of the project, so that it can, in principle, apply them directly to their engineering problems and, if necessary, use them in computer programming routines.

The issues addressed in the text consider the technological advances of recent decades on new enabling technologies, numerical modeling concepts of land, automation earthmoving machinery and computerized highway project, among others. Fundamentally it is a book that can be used both as support material for civil engineering courses, as a technical reference material for professionals involved with the geometric design of roads.

The authors are civil engineers graduated more than 30 criteria and the , and during their working lives they worked in road agencies in the private sector and higher education institutions.

Shopping Iguatemi is located in Promenade des Flamboyants, 200, in San Carlos.
